Expectant Father commits suicide after bust-up with wife at East Pattaya home

Posted on November 24, 2012 at 10:15 pm

An expectant Father committed suicide at the culmination of a serious argument with his 8 month pregnant wife on Saturday afternoon at their East Pattaya family home. She claimed to have had enough of his constant heavy drinking and wanted to divorce him at the District Office on Monday.

Police and rescue services were called to the home of Khun Panya aged 35. He was hanging from a roof beam in the bedroom while his distraught heavily pregnant wife and their son were in the living room area in complete disbelief at what had occurred. They further revealed how Khun Panya refused to work and support his family which was causing his wife, Khun Chutigarn aged 34, a lot of stress only weeks before she was due to give birth.

Police conducted an inspection of the body and house and found nothing to suggest his death was suspicious in any way but they will wait for the results of a postmortem examination before closing the case.

I am afraid the one who was EXTREMELY poor is this unlucky guy. He was the real victim in the end.

Very selfish on the part of the deceased! Wish the wife and her son all the best for the future!!

Let’s see… the husband, unemployed, heavy drinker, unwilling to work, married with a pregnant wife, and a son already, and HE commits suicide because his wife wanted to divorce his sorry butt next week? Looks like he did Thai society a favor with not having to lock this deadbeat up. At least he won’t make any more fatherless kids.

Fit enough to father children and get drunk.The thought of the easy life disappearing was too much.

I feel no sympathy for a lazy drunk. I feel bad for the wife and child however.

He was already wasting his life before he hung himself. Shocking for his wife and son but probably better for them in the long run!

What’s his problem they do not have a child support collection gestapo in Thailand like they do in our home countries.

In what way, Frank? If you’re not going to provide for your family and kids, then don’t marry, and don’t make babies! The kids are the victims here, they have no say in the matter.

Even if he was a waster and a drinker sure his kids would of still wanted him around,Always better to have a father than no father at all.At 35 he did have time to turn his life around,Sad story,Especially for those left behind
